But also remember, before skinny models were in, curves were in! And vintage accessories are still great for accentuating our sexy plus size figures today!

The Balconette Corsets

A balcony bra has wider straps which lift from the bottom of the cup, creating a perky fullness effect. These bras are great for giving maximum uplift and a fuller shape to lower or dropped breasts. Wide-set straps mean they’re great under classic low-cut, sweetheart or vintage necklines. Wide straps also mean more support, something plus size ladies often feel they need. A balcony bra is hot in itself. However, a corset can add to the sexiness. A bit of lace not quite completely covering some skin so tempting. A corset can also help you to put all ‘you bits’ back where you want them and create a gorgeous silhouette.
